Episode 1: This Affects Our Minds Too

🗣️ About this episode

In this opening episode of the YMHBB podcast, young people from Manchester and Barcelona introduce five urgent issues impacting their mental health: energy poverty, structural racism, climate anxiety, housing struggles, and the lack of support in schools and institutions.

Through personal stories and collective analysis, they show how these challenges are connected—and how individualistic and indifferent systems fail to support their mental wellbeing. They call instead for an intersectional approach that links mental health with broader issues of justice and care.
